Korean Movies

Many people around the world have seen movies like “Oldboy” and “The Host (괴물)”, but there are so many other entertaining and well-made films to see out there. Which ones you watch depends on what kind of movie you like.
Some of Jon’s recom...mendations from what he’s seen in different categories are below.
Comedy:
Speedy Scandal (과속 스캔들); My Girlfriend is a Secret Agent (7급 공무원); Hello Ghost (헬로 고스트); Like a Virgin (천하 장사 마돈나)
Drama:
Welcome to Dongmakgol (웰컴 투 동막골); The King and the Clown (왕의 남자); Moss (이끼); Tazza: the High Rollers, or The War of the Flowers, depending on who you talk to (타짜); Taegukgi (태극기 휘날리며); Modern Boy (모던 보이); War of the Arrows (최종병기 활)
Action:
The Man From Nowhere (아저씨); Jeonwoochi (전우치); The Good, The Bad, The Strange (nicknamed 놈놈놈, though the real title is much longer and usually said in the wrong order, 좋은놈, 나쁜 놈, 이상한 놈), Haeundae (해운대); Blades of Blood (구르믈 버서난 달처럼), Haunters (초능력자)
Many of these movies can be in other categories, but I put them in the category that I thought showed their strongest element.
Look them up! Give them a try! And if you have your own recommendations, write them below^^
